Alright, I'm gonna follow you up. :)

My Touhou music of the day is PERFECT AIM by the doujin circle SOUND
HOLIC. You can listen here in YouTube (via Invidious) with Traditional
Chinese and English subtitles (since it's a Japanese vocal):
https://yt.chaotic.ninja/watch?v=OZ1rdcBIfNw
It's a J-Trance and rock remix of two themes from Touhou 2 (PC-98 era):
- Extra Love (extra stage theme)
- Tank Girl's Dream (Rika's extra boss theme)
Hence the addition of alt.music.trance, japan.comp.pc98,
tw.bbs.music.japan, and rec.games.video.classic to the crossposts.
This SOUND HOLIC arrange has been eating at my mind like a brainworm.
It's such a fire remix that I had it on loop for hours, especially when
I'm coding.
It also doesn't help that I *love* Rika from Story of Eastern
Wonderland, and that I think she's a very underrated character in the
whole Touhou series. Yes, being a PC-98 character automatically makes
you underrated (except if you're Mima, Yuuka, or maybe Shinki or Elly),
but damn Rika is a contender for being the most underrated. She's purely
human (and not a youkai like Nitori, who is an engineer like Rika) yet
has built tanks, made bakebake (which are stage enemies that look like
ghosts and will become a staple of the series until the end of the PC-98
era), and given Reimu hell in extra stage. That makes Rika more the
impressive to me compared to Nitori.
Anyway back to the music, the instruments are all fantastic. The 12
second mark is such a powerful start you could've told me it comes from
Ace Combat or shit and I would've believed you for a second. The
electric guitars are absolutely shredding, and the vocalist has a
beautiful voice, as expected from SOUND HOLIC!

Loved it. The Rika background used by the uploader is cool too.

they're both engineers it probably is likely that the one will encounter
the other somehow someday... :)
(On a lesser related note I should get back around to playing PC-98...)

her engineering feats without any magic at all (or at least as far as we
know, but it does seem like Rika doesn't look like the type who would
know how to use magic though). And befriend her of course. Kappa and
humans are friends! :D
